Major Salvadoran banks sold

In recent weeks, two major Salvadoran banks have been sold to foreign banking interests. In the first transaction, US mega-bank Citigroup acquired Banco Cuscatlan. This sale was followed by the sale of El Salvador's largest bank, Banagricola, to Bancolombia, a financial institution based in Colombia.
